We recruit for these programs throughout the year, with opportunities arising once or twice annually per program.
Trainee programs
Junior Trainees are usually in their first or second year of law studies.
Our Junior Trainees are never shying away from even the trickiest tasks. They are the epitome of the can-do attitude, always ready to help. They handle every task with great energy and precision. The right attitude is the key.
Junior Trainees keep our office up and running by taking care of everyday tasks around the office and making everyone’s life easier. Whether it’s delivering documents, helping organizing events or making sure our kitchen has the best snacks, Junior Trainees are always up to the task. They might not work with legal assignments just yet, but they gain valuable insight about how a law firm works. Also juggling many things at once and thinking fast (and outside the famous box) are skills that most likely improve while working as a Junior Trainee.
A Junior Trainee period can be everything from eight to 18 months. Junior Trainees work part-time in two shifts in order to combine working and studies smoothly.
KM Trainees are usually half-way through of their law studies.
Knowledge Management Trainees work with our lawyers on client assignments relating to all practice areas. KM Trainees participate in comprehensive legal information retrieval training, which enables them to provide our lawyers relevant and up-to-date information on legal developments, case law, legal commentaries and legislative materials. One of their tasks is also cataloguing and indexing legal publications acquired in our library.
During their traineeship, our KM trainees obtain an exceptionally wide outlook on all aspects of business law. Legal knowledge management skills acquired during the trainee program are beneficial in any lawyer profession, also outside the law firm environment.
Our KM Trainees are eager to learn new things every day, since every assignment is different! Our KM Trainees really like to dig into tasks; they leave no stone unturned while searching for comprehensive and correct answers. Being precise and being proactive helps in getting the job done.
Our KM Trainees typically stay with us for a bit longer period of time, often up to two years. They work part-time, usually two to three days a week.
Associate Trainees are already in the end of their studies, usually graduating quite soon after the traineeship.
Associate Trainees work with client work alongside our lawyers. Their work is very similar to that of recently graduated lawyers. With the support of experienced colleagues, they draft documents, search for background material, work with translations and attend meetings with clients. Our Associate Trainees work within multiple fields of law, building a strong foundation for their future career and learning to work on the most complex legal questions.
One of the key traits of our Associate Trainee is willingness to develop and eagerness to try out new kinds of tasks and fields of law. An open and curious mindset is highly valued.
Our Associate Trainees are sharp minds, but what’s more important is their ambition to become even sharper. Open communication and exchanging ideas with colleagues are a key part of the role.
Our Associate Trainees work full-time for a fixed period of four months.
The Assistant trainee position suites candidates from diverse academic backgrounds, making it accessible to students across various fields of study.
Our Assistant trainees work on a variety of tasks and projects across different teams. Assistant trainees begin by supporting our assistant team, but as they develop their skills throughout the program, they gradually take on more independent work across various tasks.
The role may include tasks such as preparing documents, managing calendars and emails, arranging events and scheduling meetings, communicating with clients and authorities, and looking for information and background material. Two workdays are rarely identical.
Success as an Assistant trainee requires excellent organisational skills, meticulous attention to detail, adaptability in a dynamic environment, and a collaborative approach to teamwork. This role provides an excellent foundation for building a career in the legal sector while developing valuable professional capabilities.
Our Assistant trainees work full-time for a period of eight months
